Pass It On^®

Dishes

The greatest struggles in relationships are always centered around communication. Certainly we want to be understood which requires that first we reach out to understand the other person. But distractions in our busy lives can keep good communication from happening. This PSA reminds us to watch for the small moments that can make a big difference in our relationships. Listen... Pass It On.

Video Transcript

MUSIC:
Baby tell me where'd you ever learn
To fight without sayin' a word
Then waltz back into my life
Like it's all gonna be alright
Don't you know how much it hurts
When we don't talk
When we don't touch
When it doesn't feel like we're even in love
It matters to me
When I don't know what to say
Don't know what to do
Don't know if it really even matters to you
How can I make you see
It matters to me
When I don't know what to say
Don't know what to do
Don't know if it really even matters to you
How can I make you see
It matters to me

Even though I do not speak Spanish I love the commercial with the 2 people otherwise know as (dishes) . They bring everything out and to the point. I wish I knew their names.

Denise from Michigan JUNE 16, 2016
Brings tears to my eyes. We all lead stressful & busy lives but need to find a balance so the most important things in our lives know that they are #1.

Thanks for all you are doing! The superpacs should send all the money to you, for this campaign. Amazing. video, "The Dishes" If it doesn't make you cry, you must be texting.

Julia from Alabama NOVEMBER 18, 2015
EVERYONE SHOULD DO THIS WITH THEIR PHONES FOR THE SAKE OF EVERYONE THEY LOVE !

Fina from California NOVEMBER 8, 2015
Thank you!! This one just keeps bringing tears. I too have been married for over 17 yrs and unfortunately its very true, internet, cellphones etc. has distant too many relationships. I always wanted to marry a workaholic but now things get in the way to make time for us. When we first got together, the internet technology was just taking off, texting and cellphones were not out yet..we spend time playing board games, taking walks, just sitting on couch talking. In the past 14 yrs, thats very rare as his work is programming. I go to bed alone as he continues to work, no more talking in bed about the day or about the kids. I miss my husband. Lately I am spending time again alone more and more but I remember the times we did have and how much he still makes me melt ( like Olive Oyl did with Popeye) when he makes the time. Make time for one another, you might not get another day!

princess from Illinois NOVEMBER 1, 2015
This video brings tears, one for wishing I had someone to care for me and for all that do but are disconnected. Thank you

Ebelardo from Tarlac City, Philippines OCTOBER 20, 2015
This is what is truly happening in our society right now! We have been flooded with various modern gadgets for communicating; yet, we barely find time to talk with the people who are just fingertips away - the members of our family!

Jim from Atlanta, Georgia OCTOBER 4, 2015
I do not know who this young actress is but she is the spitting image of my high school sweet heart from over 50 years ago (1963). We were army brats and I loved her deeply. She went off to college and I went off to war in Viet Nam as a green beret officer. Time, space and circumstances changed and separated us. When I saw this video, it brought back an entire stream of fond memories of our time together. I watch it daily for it helps me to remember some of the happiest days of my life. I last spoke with her about 25 years ago and broke off communications. I regret it to this very moment so young people please listen to one another and be thoughtful before you speak or act. I hope that she views the video and can recall her happiness. Think with your hearts and listen to their wisdom before you speak or act. I learned that lesson the hard way. Forever, love Jim

I have been married almost 17 years and my husband and I are going through this. I Love him with all my heart, soul and every ounce of my being. I miss being loved, touched and looked at with the upmost respect. It seems work, my abusive childhood and the stresses of life have taken over the loving moments we used to have. He is in Sales and travels a lot and I am building 2 businesses. We used to be the couple people said, "I wish I had a relationship like yours you guys are the perfect couple, you have it all and you look alike (Ken & Barbie)". No amount of success, material things or hobbies are worth losing the love of your life. I hope this video can get through to you all. It can all change in an instant. No matter how much you love someone or how perfect your marriage may seem, if you do not work at it daily and make God a priority in your lives, you will be nothing more than roommates passing each other every day. Thank you for everyone who put their heart and souls into these videos, I just know they will trigger something in many people, to live life to the fullest and to take time for the people who matter the most in our lives.

Faith Hill does a great version of the song. I think it's Entitled... "It Matters To Me" . ☺

Watch again & again. It hit raw nerves! Technology is sadly taking the place of real communication, it is a silent killer.

I like it verry much.

Chris Grim from Ohio, Wapakoneta SEPTEMBER 8, 2014
Opened my "eyes"

Al from Alberta, Canada SEPTEMBER 1, 2014
Len, Sami is right, Faith Hill, album and song are IT MATTERS TO ME; on an album of standouts another song for meaningful PSA is YOU CAN'T LOSE ME, a lifelong tool of lessons and "parent Mother/Child bond", tears of solid hope and parental strengths to draw from and pass down to ones children for their journey thru life. As Red Skeleton used to always remind us, "Good night and may God bless", may we pass this down, and on. Al, Alberta

Jeanette from Ohio AUGUST 15, 2014
